Augh, there's probably going to be lots of Horizontal spinners.

Yeah...sadly it did get a bit outclassed later in life. But it will always have that unmatched RW 20-match winning streak, and being the first robot to put another out of the arena  :mrgreen:
 
And in contrast, other than the Best Newcomer award in Series 6, what did Dantomkia win in comparison? (Just an example  ;) )
True, I lol'd when I saw Chaos 2 go OOTA.
I just switched off the TV and had a bit of a Heroic BSOD moment   :(

My thoughts on Tough as Nails

His tactic on just dumping a bot down the pit was boring, but that got it far in the competition, everyone wants to win (unless you build a bot like Napalm, that bot screamed "destroy me"). I think TAN's design was smart and well made if you ignore the exposed back.
Well, Napalm was decent enough in Series 2, but it quickly became redundant later on.
 
 
Now TAN? Its tactics were what got me most. What excitement its battles had before were quickly turned into boring, predictable scaled-up games of UFO Grabber. Just ask Gravity and Disc-O-Inferno. Never did any damage either, come to mention it.
 
And we could've had Gravity in the Third World Championship, but noooo.

Well yeah, Napalm was good in the first few seasons but as bots were getting better and destructive, they just stayed in the same place.
A little bit like Chaos 2, almost. The key difference being that Chaos 2 was amazing   :approve:
Chaos 2 were good, but should've done some modifications cause as soon as everyone started using Co2 flippers, Chaos 2 were starting to be no better than the rest of the flippers. Chaos 2 will always be epic though.

Others:

Mousetrap & Sir Chromealot: Made it by luck.
Admittedly, I liked Mousetrap. Could have done with a srimech, though.
 
But one that was very bad, as Sonny pointed out earlier, was Warhog.

just saying cause NateF doesn`t seems to know


I was directing my comment towards Jonzu.


Also, I like many types of bots, except for "Cheap as Chips"!
Yes! You agree, there is a God!   :approve:

I tried the Judge Burst on a MW just to see what it would do, and it rupted itself into the wall.
Yeah, it would do that.

I'm not messing around with burst motors now though, making a new (and better IMO) rep.
Best stick to a basic rammer, cutter or flipper, eh?  ;)

Panic Attack did do damage...

...in dsl atleast  ;)
But in real life, lifters can do damage under certain circumstances...did you see The Big Cheese vs Shrapnel?
Well i have now.
Also, I can distinctly remember a match where P.A ripped off either one of shunt's or sgt bash's tires.
It also knocked off Matilda's shell in its fight against Axios (Flipping her over as well), and broke Sgt Bash's saw in its qualifying battle against Whirling Dervish in Series 2.
Yet more reasons to why P.A is awesome
And why it doesn't break studio lights if it goes OOTA   :yaya)

boring if different with viewing standpoint and a controlling standpoint

Spinners...

fast weapons, lots of destruction, flying parts, sometimes sparks, etc makes it great from a viewers standpoint

basic predictable strategy or avoid, hit, avoid, hit makes it boring from a controlling standpoint

personally I <3 Watching and Controlling them :P

 
Flippers FTW!

I like almost all kinds...except for grabbers that don't do damage.
 
Cheap as Chips, I'm looking at you.

Boring.
Heck, it was better than Steel Avenger at least!
 
Well, Panic Attack didn't need feather dusters to win fights against flippers  :yaya)

Why? Noodle's is better anyway.
I didn't know he was doing one. Anyway, I thought that this was a really original and inspired contest idea, allowing the contestants to design their own cars and race 'em in a destruction-filled race to the finish. And I'm sure once the faults have been ironed out, I'm sure you can show old Ramen-features how to do a tournament properly!  ;)

5. Panic Attack (Rammer with Lifter = BORING!)
4. Pussycat (Very Very annoyng...)
3. Typhoon (Destructive, but Unfair)
2. Storm II (Too Fast, Too Annoying)
1. Razer  (Most Boring Robot IMO.)
Ah, just saw this again. It's reminded me...
